The 15 Most Instagrammable Spots in Paris

There’s no doubt that Paris is beautiful, fashionable and romantic! Paris is one of the most photogenic cities in the entire world and that means that there’s no shortage of instagrammable places in Paris!

If you’re hunting down photo spots in Paris, I have some suggestions for you. From iconic highlights to offbeat options you may not have heard of, here are the most instagrammable places in Paris:

Rue de L’Université

Lined with beautiful, classically Parisian buildings–think lovely stone and wrought-iron balconies–and dead-ending abruptly into the Eiffel Tower, it’s hard to imagine a most instagrammable spot in Paris than the end of Rue de l’Universite.

Le Carrosel de la Tour Eiffel

Pont de Bir-Hakeim

The Pont de Bir-Hakeim is not only pretty because of the view of the Eiffel Tower. The symmetry of the bridge is beautiful as well. Just take a look online and see for yourself!

Trocadero

Obviously, any guide to the most instagrammable spots in Paris has to include this: beautiful Trocadero, which overlooks the Eiffel Tower, is among the most famous photo spots on the planet and one of my absolutely favorites. But be prepared: you need to be patient to take photos in here as this place is always crowded! 

Arc de Triomphe

The Arc de Triomphe, standing proud in the center of the Champs-Elysees, is absolutely one of the most instagrammable places in Paris.

Le Deux Plateau

The Colonnes de Buren may be one of the most popular Instagram spots in Paris these days, but in the mid-1980s when they were installed, their modern vibe and black-and-white stripes were considered jarring and not at all suitable to their home in the inner courtyard of the Palais Royale (much like the pyramids in front of the Louvre, and for the matter, the Eiffel Tower itself).

Pont Alexandre III

The opulent, beautiful Pont Alexander III is considered by many to be the most beautiful bridge in the city–and it’s definitely amazing place to take photos in Paris.

Avenue Camões

Luxembourg Gardens

Inspired by the also-stunning Boboli Gardens in Florence, there’s no doubt that the Luxembourg Gardens deserve to be counted among the most instagrammable places in Paris year-round–but summer is when they truly shine.

Montmartre

La Maison Rose

This pretty, pink building nestled in Montmartre is among the most #instagramfamous places in Paris, but it has been famous for far longer: Picasso himself used to frequent this cafe, along with many other writers and artists.

Odette Cafe

The gorgeous Odette Cafe is located at the end of a cobblestone street– what more could you ask for when looking for photo spots in Paris?

Jardin des Tuileries

When you are arriving to Musee du Louvre you will find this breathtaking garden. If you go in the fall it's even prettier with all the orange yellow tones. 

Petit Palais Museum 

If you like art, taking photos in museums are a must have. You will capture all the movement around you and it's a way to have different kind of photos.

Louvre Museum

The sparkling glass pyramids of the Louvre are iconic (though some Parisians still aren’t fond of that idea–they weren’t popular when they were installed in the 1980s).

Don’t miss a chance to snap photos here, and arrive early if you can–this is among the most popular photo spots in Paris, and it gets very crowded.
